forward to it!

HOODIE ALERT! Have you noticed that
your child has come home without his or her hoodie? That could be due to the
fact that it is in our lost & found – which now has a total of 16 school
hoodies accumulated on the rack in the cafeteria, not to mention other nice
jackets as well. To claim, visit the rack. Parents – might be a good idea to
take a minute to put your child’s name on the tags of all coats & jackets.

Friday at 2:15. If you or grandparents are attending stations, and you would
